OUCH, ARLEN...YOU'VE BEEN COULTERED!!!

THAT's GOTTA HURT!

An Astonishing woman. A unique blend of Brains, Beauty and Gumption.

We must not allow Arlen Specter to influence in any way who interprets our laws.

ARLEN SPECTOR BELIEVES OUR TROOPS SHOULD BE SUBJECT TO THE INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT. THIS SHOULD BE A LITMUS TEST APPLIED TO ANYONE INVOLVED IN OUR LEGAL SYSTEM.

He is campaigning like the politician that he is in his effort to get the Chair of the Judicial Committee. We must not allow it. Right now, he will say anything and obfuscate as much as possible in order to garner an appointment.

But as Zell Miller pointed out in his speech:

"...years of votes can tell you much more about a man than twenty weeks of campaign rhetoric. Campaign talk tells people who you want them to think you are. How you vote tells people who you really are deep inside."

It would be unprecedented for Snarlin' Arlen to be passed over for the chairmanship but we've got to adopt the same "not because I didn't do my part" attitude that helped ensure 4 MORE YEARS, 4 MORE YEARS, 4 MORE YEARS.

Oh, sorry, I don't know what got into me, I guess I got carried away; seems to keep happening over the last week for some reason (GRIN)

The link below represents a concerted effort to keep Arlen out of the Judiciary Chair.

"Instead of legal giants like Judge Robert Bork, we ended up with Anthony Kennedy and David Hackett Souter on the Supreme Court."

Instead of legal giants like Judge Robert Bork Justice Scalia, we ended up with Anthony Kennedy and David Hackett Souter on the Supreme Court.

I didn't like how Specter helped to block Bork and certainly don't like anything else he does. But Bork really does go too far. And he is too slick to be a strict constructionist, I think. I don't want a conservative legislating from the bench any more than I want a pack of liberals doing the same.

I hope we dump Specter and Bush appoints some Scalias, scholarly but moderate judges who interpret the law and refrain from writing it. But they do need to have the courage to overturn Roe and other political cases from their predecessors and send those cases back to the legislatures where they belong.

Bush's remarks about Scalia being his ideal for a judge are one of the most outstanding reasons to support him.

[George W. Bush]

Freudian slip there -- I meant Spector, not Hatch.

You're not so far off. Hatch has been Washingtonized and no longer truly represents the people of his state.

I don't want either of them to head Judiciary in the Senate. A Kyle or a Grassley or a Sessions (or just about anybody else) would be a much better choice.

Thanks for digging up a great retrospective.

Why couldn't Ann have faxed over her research before Dubya and Santorum stuck their necks out to help re-elect this snake?
